Genshin Impact, I'm Slime
Chapter 481 Cowards who are unwilling to change
"I know what you are thinking, Ah Qing, but Emperor Yanwang has died, and there is no way for him to be resurrected in full view of the public. This also means that the greatest guarantee for the Seven Stars of Liyue has disappeared, and what follows is an era of competition among heroes. "
"The Yunhan family, which started out as a weapon forger, and the Kun family, which once coveted Yuheng's position, are already ready to make a move."
"According to the family's speculation, Liyue will face the replacement of the throne within half a year at the latest. The emperor has passed away and a new emperor has not yet been established. During this window period of the replacement of the throne, we must win this cruel competition. Once the family is defeated, even your position as the Seven Stars of Liyue will be lost...Am I clear enough?"
Gong Ming's tone was slow and he didn't seem to be in a hurry. After all, his mission was just to delay Ke Qing with words so that Ning Lan could continue to absorb the power of faith that originally belonged to Morax and complete the preparatory work for the divine descending ceremony.
Listening to Gong Ming's story, Keqing felt dizzy and felt an inexplicable sense of absurdity in her heart.
She is the holder of the Eye of God, possessing extraordinary power far beyond the understanding of ordinary people. She is known as the Seven Stars of Liyue. She stands at the top of the power system and can decide the fate of millions of people. However, these auras and honors will not fall in vain. Not yet on top of a young girl in her prime.
Keqing is a genius that has not been produced in the family for hundreds of years, but she is also controlled by the family itself.
In order for her to ascend the throne of Liyue Seven Stars at this age, the family has spent unimaginable resources. As the spokesperson of the family's interests, Keqing is also obliged to do what she can to repay the family's efforts.
The elders of the family can promote her to the throne of the Seven Stars, and naturally they can push a more obedient chess piece that is better able to weigh the pros and cons to this position. Ke Qing cannot resist her own class. After all, she is the biggest leader in this profit distribution system. of beneficiaries.
Every time like this, Keqing would admire Ningguang from the bottom of her heart. Although Ningguang secretly paid a price of blood and tears in order to survive in Yujingtai, she would always walk firmly on the road to her ideal.
Although she didn't agree with Ningguang's beliefs, Keqing had to admit that Ningguang's mental tenacity and decisive methods were far better than hers.
Now, the Tianquan star, whose hands and eyes could reach the sky, was standing in front of her, but he had lost consciousness inexplicably, leaving himself alone to deal with the current situation.
Ke Qing's light and dark purple eyes were full of cold suspense. She seemed to have accepted the fact that her family participated in the rebellion, but she still wanted to make a final effort:
"Uncle Gongming...the emperor has passed away, but the sky in Liyue has not changed."
"Yinyuan Hall's behavior is undoubtedly blasphemous... As accomplices, you should be guilty of the same crime. If our ancestors in the heavenly spirit see that their descendants are so unworthy, I am afraid they will want to come and clean up the family in person!"
Ke Qing's voice was sonorous and powerful, causing Gong Ming to nod in relief and look at her with a kind expression.
"Looking at you always reminds me of my youth. You may think that there is justice in the world, that justice is clear, and good and evil are rewarded. Even if you betray your family, you have not betrayed yourself. Do you believe that a hundred years from now, King Rock will The emperor and other successors will give you a fair judgment..."
Ke Qing was made uncomfortable by Gong Ming's eyes, and interrupted him with a strong tone: "What exactly do you want to say?"
"Guess, why is Liyue like this? Why are there rich and poor, and why are there classes? Why are you the Seven Stars of Liyue with fine clothes and fine food, while the beggars on the streets have to rely on relief from the General Affairs Department to maintain their food and clothing? What if this There is justice in the world, but why are people so unequal? Doesn’t Prince Yan know all this? "
"You are wrong. Of course He knows it. He just acquiesces in everything happening because He is the patron saint of businessmen, wealth, gold, and contracts. Only these can become His power."
"Individual grievances and institutional bias are all trivial issues in the face of the great rule of Liyue. This is the nature of Emperor Yan, and it is also the earthly barrier that he cannot cross. If you can understand this, Only then can we truly understand what the Seven Stars of Liyue are.”
Gong Ming's voice gradually lowered, and the cheerful businessman's appearance disappeared, replaced by the stability of a family patriarch, who even seemed to have a sense of mission.
Looking at the farce in the banquet hall, Famas also shook his clothes and looked away from Ning Lan indifferently.
In addition to the Yuheng family and the executives of the Fools, the other viewing seats in the banquet hall were also occupied by speakers from the Huishan Hall and the Shenglu Hall. They seemed to have the same curiosity as Famas, and wanted to know how to face the family. The dilemma between interests and Liyue's future, what decision will Keqing make?
Pantalone turned her head at this time and looked at the energetic Famas, as if trying to figure out what he was thinking.
As a banker who has experienced ups and downs, he knows that the Chamber of Commerce family will always act in the direction of maximizing profits, just like the food chain in the jungle. As long as there is any interest group eager for change in the land of Liyue, the interaction between the forces will The cycle of annexation and decline will continue forever. The current situation is just the first confrontation between the major factions after Liyue lost the power of the gods, and their brains and hearts have not really started to act. Today, the godless country will face more unprecedented drastic changes.
But in the eyes of the gods, these chaos and variables may just be the sufferings that humans must go through in order to become self-reliant.
Judging from the god's life cycle with no end in sight, everything here is just a fleeting moment in thousands of years. If the god really chooses to use violence to eliminate a certain human family and country, then no matter who it is, it will only be a chariot. The dust in front of us, and being crushed equally is the ultimate fate.
However, before the destined day arrives, only by exhausting all means and struggling to the end can we find the only way out, such as the "King of Men" who raises his sword to the gods.
I am afraid that it is precisely because of this consideration that the Yuheng family wants to prepare more trump cards for themselves at all costs, and is even willing to cooperate with the Fools and bear the charge of traitor.
Keqing, who knew her family's ambitions, was silent for a long time.
"Uncle Gongming, do you know what the emperor admires most about me?"
Hearing this, Gong Ming frowned and did not answer directly.
No matter how much he uses his power to suppress others, he can't hide that Ke Qing is the person in the family who best understands the thoughts of the gods in the past hundred years. This is also the advantage that makes Ke Qing stand out from her peers. It is also the reason why the family allows her to sit in the position of Qixing. The confidence to go down.
The girl showed a rather happy and confident smile.
"The emperor appreciates me the most... I don't believe in him at all, I only believe in myself."
"It is true that the family will undergo great changes if we lose the gods, but if we bring back the unknown gods, will we be able to stabilize the family's status? We do not rely on our own efforts to develop and grow, but have to rely on the gods to survive... You keep saying that sacrifice is not enough It’s for the benefit of the family, but I only see your fear and cowardice after losing the blessing of the gods.”
Ke Qing frowned angrily, the accumulated elemental power of thunder lingered around her, and even the air seemed to be filled with the burnt smell of high-voltage current, while the Qianyan Army guarding her surrounded her with guns. , assuming a fighting stance.
Gong Ming seemed to have been exposed, his face quickly darkened, and he glared angrily:
"Keqing, you'd better figure out your position..."
"I don't need a family member like you to remind me of my position. This stupid ceremony should end here!"
The blade of Kaufeng shone with lightning and slashed towards Ning Lan, who raised his hands high.
When Keqing drew his sword, there was standing on the mountain barrier outside the golden house a girl with two horns, a calm temperament, and an elegance as outlined by the moonlight.
"Miss Gan Yu, the time agreed with Master Yu Heng has come."
The speaker was Feng Yan, the coach of Qianyan Army who was standing behind Gan Yu.
Behind Fengyan were the final machines and Xuanyan heavy artillery arranged in a matrix, as well as tens of thousands of Qianyan Army soldiers who were well-equipped and imposing, holding white tassel spears and waiting for danger.
"Well, it seems that Ningguang and Keqing are in trouble..."
Miss Gan Yu, who is quiet by nature and doesn't like disputes, clutched her chest worriedly and finally nodded.
"Start the attack." (End of chapter)
